You may have "out did" yourself with that blue challenger pic .... That is one crazy looking spoiler! Looks like it attaches to the roof as well? Someone had a vision...

I'm surprised that Robert (oldtransamdriver) hasn't commented yet ! That's his Camaro, the ex Mo Carter '67 Z on display at a mall, in the post # 315 above by 1109RWHP.

I did not take any of those. I would have been 5 or so.

Thanks Mike

It was 50 years ago about this time of year I made that deal with Mo to buy that car.
It was sold to me as a roller - no engine or tranny.  Had rear drum brakes and street
Koni shocks, and a very basic roll cage.

Had no idea at that time what Trans-Am adventures lay ahead !

yes, have seen them both before.  #48 I believe is at Michigan International taken at an scca
event in 69.  I shared the car that weekend with GM engineer/racer Dick Hoffman who was going
to help us with car set-up etc- he had already been racing a 67 (H&H Racing) and worked at the
GM MIlford proving grounds, and had lots of test miles on that track.

Sometime in 70 the camaro got a new paint job - yellow with black stripes.  We are loaded up
ready to head out - not sure where - maybe the Glen, Bryar, or St. Jovite?  You can see the borrowed 69
Dodge 1/2 ton pick-up, I borrowed from a friend, is a might over-loaded!  The single axle trailer was
was probably borrowed from one of owner Al's stock car friends. This pic was taken outside of Al's
house in Weston Ontario - suburb of Toronto.
